    The Motorcraft 2150 carburetor came out in 1975. Probably heavy on emissions stuff, I would stay with the 2100.

    For a stock 302, I would look for a carburetor with a 1.08-1.14 sized venturis.

    There's also the Holley 2 bbl carbs out there too. Just me, but I'd go to a Holley, never had much luck with the Autolite 2 bbl.
